G.I.
JIVE WITH G.I. JILL– Hear 10 quarter-hour Armed Forces Radio
Service broadcasts with Jill –Martha Wilkerson– playing the
top recordings as requested by servicemen around the world
during WW II. The G.I.s loved her and her “girl-back-home”
sign-off: “Good morning to some of you... good afternoon to
some more of you... and to the rest of you... good night.”
G.I.
Jive was a programs from the Armed Forces Radio services
show, starring G.I. Jill, who boosted troop morale and
introduced big band sounds and other popular music of the
time to soldiers serving in World War 2. Her actual name was
Martha Wilkerson and she was a real favorite with the troops
worldwide. She made hundreds of broadcasts which were sent
by short wave radio to Europe, Africa, Australia and other
war zones. Her closing line was: "Good morning to some of
you, good afternoon to some more of you, and to the rest of
you -- good night." Her goal was to make servicemen feel at
home no matter where they were. She supplied lonely troops,
both in the U.S. and overseas, with a pretty, female voice
from home to lift their spirits. G.I. Jill provided the
allied/AFRS counterpart to the infamous 'Tokyo Rose'
broadcasts from Japan. The Tokyo Rose programming was
performed by approximately a dozen English speaking female
broadcasters on shows such as The Zero Hour. Their
jobs were to disrupt the morale of Allied forces that
happened to be listening.
